My Car Is Overheating
Temp gauge in the red? Pull over now — driving further can total the engine.
- Turn off the A/C and turn the heater to full hot (yes, in Texas). This pulls heat away from the engine.
- Pull over safely and shut the engine off.
- Do NOT open the radiator cap — it's under pressure and will spray boiling coolant. Wait, then call us.
What's usually going on
Low coolant (leaks), a stuck thermostat, a failing water pump, or a bad radiator fan. All of these need a shop, not a roadside fix.
How we fix it
We don't recommend driving an overheated engine. We can tow you to your preferred mechanic or a shop we trust in Fort Worth.
One call. A tech is on the way. No membership needed.

Frequently asked questions
Once the engine is fully cool (30+ minutes off), water can top up a low system. But if there's a leak, you'll be back in the red within a few miles. Better to tow.
One brief incident, usually not. Continuing to drive can warp the head, blow the head gasket, or seize the engine — very expensive.
